If you're programming in assembly, regardless of what it is, you are the biggest nerd of them all. And I have massive fucking respect for you.

What is HTML doing here? Blasphemy!

Wow I'm an old engineer nerd. I feel so exposed. Zero is nothing always start at one for life.

As a ruby guy, I'm just happy to be included.

Perl should say: You are old and a nerd or you use Debian

Where is Objective-C?

how dare you Im not an engineer
- How is your favourite language one that indexes arrays from 1??? You monster!
  
  How dare you count things from one, like a human being.
- What language is that engineer and a nerd one?
  
  Matlab.

I am not in this chart because my favourite programming languages are too nerdy for the cool programming nerds to include in their nerd chart.
- Super nerd
  
  Turbo Nerd
- Therefore I can conclude I am not a nerd
  
  I don't think that's how it works.
- Same here.
  VHDL represent. Although it's arguably not a "programming language"
  
  you get out of here with your hardware descriptions!
  
  You work at IBM or something? Who even still uses VHDL?
- Nerd.
  
  Fair.

Aww I guess i'm fine since i mainly write in BBC BASIC SDL lol
- Have you come to 2025 in a time machine? Can I borrow it?
  
  Sorry I'm using it at the moment doing research for a Roman trading game I'm writing in BASIC.
- Neeerd

Javascript should say "you are a masochist and a nerd"
- Who thought of that and how have they managed to sustain their core bodily functions this long?
  
  That should be a dog fucking a football.

Where holyC
- You are a christian nerd

Rust: you are a nerd wearing programming socks.
- Trying to rewrite everything in the universe
  
  It's a shame that the Rust rewrite of the GNU coreutils was named uutils and not uwutils.

Cobol: you are old, and a nerd, and probably making some sweet cheddar right now propping up a mid to late 20th century beast somewhere.
Assembly: you are a cyborg.
- Assembly: you are a cyborg.
  Or programming a tiny microcontroller to blink a led as efficient as possible.
  
  Something wrong with:
  
  #include <Arduino.h> void loop() { digitalWrite(13, HIGH); delay(1000); digitalWrite(13, LOW); delay(1000); }
  ? 😂🤮

R
We can reject the null hypothesis that you are not a nerd at significance $\alpha < 0.001$.
oh wait, shit let me run that again, my data frame is full of NA somehow, again.

I know who made this included React and HTML specifically to trigger us programmers, to that I say... well played >:(

TIL fortran has a logo

Lisp gang rise up! uses inhaler
- As a haskell nerd, I feel that I have the moral authority to declare you king of the nerds.
  "Ha! You think your language has macros? You call that a macro?! This list processing code is a list of tokens, why wouldn't it be able to edit itself?"
  It breaks my brain.
  
  Is haskell still alive?
  
  When they said, "Don't write self modifying code", they obviously didn't mean me! /s

Where would COBOL fall?
- "You're in a Nursing Home"
  
  "and nerd"

Laughs in perl
- TMTOWTDI!
  Nerd.

what about BASIC

What is the bottom right language?
- Perl. It was the cool thing from 1998 to 2008.
  
  Still the linux sysadmin's language of choice!

🤓

This chart knows me.

10/10 would nerd out in PHP again.

...but some nerds are more equal than others.

This is deep.
